Accords, Montreal, QC

Some colleagues and I had supper tonight at Accords on rue Notre Dame Ouest in Old Montreal.

It was really nice inside.

I'd love to be locked up in this room!

Some ordered appetizers ...

Oysters

Mushrooms

I debated about whether to order the Smoked Paprika Guinea Breast or the Beef Shoulder. Our server suggested the beef so that's what a lot of us got.

I swapped the beets for potato. We all found the beef chewy, kind of tough and tasteless ... a couple didn't eat theirs and sent them back. I ate a bit of mine and passed the rest around for others to try. When we commented about it to the manager, she tried some and said that she found it was tender like butter (!!??).

My colleague next to me had the guinea breast and I tried a bit ... it was delicious! I should have gone with my first instinct.

My colleague across from me had octopus.

When we got back to our hotel afterwards, we had a drink in the bar and ordered snacks.
